"As far as I'm concerned, he's been through a disciplinary meeting. He's very aware of the consequences now of his actions and he's very remorseful about what he's done," ESPNcricinfo quoted England skipper Joe Root as saying.

"Once that disciplinary is gone through and it's been made very aware of what his punishment is, I think now is time for us to look at it in terms of him being available for selection," he added.

In the second Test, England thrashed West Indies by 113 runs to level the three-match series at 1-1. The third and final Test of the series will be played from July 24 at Manchester. (ANI)
